Octagonal Weave Bamboo Handbag (S) | lulu | Loopto

This compact bag looks small but it is large enough to carry a small book (B5 size) and other daily necessities. With a design that goes well with both Japanese and Western-style clothing, it is perfect for everyday use. This is woven by a woman artisan with careful attention to detail. The handle is made of synthetic leather so it is comfortable to carry and will not catch on your clothing.
Use a Japanese wrapping cloth furoshiki, bandana, or other colorful fabric to make a small, cloth purse to bundle your belongings to tote in this handbag. You can change the fabric to coordinate with your clothing or the season.
This handbag is made of madake bamboo (Phyllostachys bambusoides) from Kyushu. It is cured to remove the oils and dried in the sun to preserve the bamboo. The bamboo is not dyed, so over time the color will deepen and become richer.

The mizuhiki dome brings these special characteristics to life. The pretty arc described by the fine rice-paper threads possesses a presence all of its own. From within the dome, the traditional pine and crane hold streams of silver mizuhiki that extend to either side, thus making a modern ornament.

Treasuring its place in traditional ceremonies, I wish to make better use of materials and techniques unique to Japan.
In creating the mask, the first step was to eliminate preconceived notions about mizuhiki. In doing so, I achieved a true sense of freedom, one that stimulated my creative longings.
Each delicate cord has come into being through techniques cultivated by the ancestors for tying, braiding, and rolling, and is ultimately reborn in a new form. The radiant future can be glimpsed in the myriad emotions expressed by the mask.
